It was a great weekend for the rendezvous. There were plenty of beautiful boats. I've never paddled so many in two days.

We also took quite a few pictures. Can't wait to get them developed. We met a lot of new friends. Everyone we talked to was so humble about their work and many had reason to be very proud. Walt had the most detailed boat there. Wow!

I'm starting to become an enthusiast about building now. Especially after seeing the strip boats. I can hardly wait to get started on my Redfish Spring Run. I hope my boat looks even half as good as Joe Greenley's boats. I learned a lot that weekend.

Add my thanks to the rest.
